Transform into what I dreamed ofNo longer afraidThe road to peace will be victoriousA triumph so great

I closed my eyes for the last time / I watched it all disappearI left behind my old life / I've become what I've feared-I know this path is one that very few desireBut what's done is doneNever again will I look into a mirrorFor my darkness and I have become one

It's what I've always wantedSo I tried to cast aside my guiltBut I will always be hauntedFrom the innocent hope I killed-It's blinding my moralsAnd embracing my greedI left behind my sorrowAnd gained a new kind of belief

I've done it, I've really done itDawning this new duskI've made it into the darknessThe light was never enough

Hehe, that's the second time someone has mentioned that. The first time someone said that to me I checked the song on youtube and instantly fell in love with it. I have it on my iPod now. It's a really good song, so I take it as a compliment.

You're welcome. The lines which are problematic are the following: "The road to peace will be victorious," "I know this path is one that very few desire," and "My metamorphosis is finally complete." They just have a few too many syllables.

Ahhh okay. I agree with you on those ones. I know when I was writing it- there were more lines like that, which had to be scaled down to a certain degree. Some lines didn't get scaled down though. I'll be sure to make note of it, and maybe come back to it in the near possible future.

Thank you Aaron.It's the second version of this. It was hard to rewrite because the first version was like a first person then switching to second third person kind of thing. It was back and forth, which I felt was too "all over the place" so in this revised version I kept it simple enough to where I liked it.

Aww, well thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you liked it.But if you don't mind, since I'm a paranoid perfectionist, could you point out which places you meant? Maybe I can tweak it.Thank you again.
